Fortunately, with a small investment in unarmed security guards, businesses can nearly eliminate these risks. At an average-sized retail location, a single security guard more than pays for itself over the course of a year.

For instance, Security Base Group employs reliable guards, trains them in-house, and provides incentives that reward excellence on the job. All of that helps to create a security force that is eager to excel, well-trained, and more than capable of meeting any challenges that come their way.

Secondly, we provide opportunities for advancement and raises. That gives our guards incentive to work extra hard, be extra-focused on providing excellent service to our clients, and engage in exceptional security work to protect your business. By creating opportunities for growth, promoting from within the company, and rewarding effort, we’ve built loyalty in our guards, giving them a constant reason to improve their security skills, and continually improve the services they provide.

In addition to background checks, our unarmed security guards undergo hours of training before being sent into the field. Then, because of our guard-assignment policies, our new recruits are paired with industry veterans who can further teach them to excel. As a result, even our newest recruit is often better-trained than a guard who has been working in the industry for years.

In an increasingly criminal world, many retailers and store owners simply can’t afford to go without protection. Security Base Group’s security guards serve as a potential deterrent to criminal activities, and are quick to spring into action should the situation call for it. By hiring a guard from us, you can protect your business from retail shrinkage, vandalism, and even violent incidents. You may also qualify for substantial insurance discounts. When you consider the money saved versus the cost of having a guard on premise, it’s easy to see why more and more stores are staffing full-time security.

Our services are unequaled throughout the industry in accordance with the best practices of the security industry.

Unarmed Security Guards are most effective in areas where violent crime is a rarity. Though they are capable of responding to violence if necessary, their primary responsibilities include:

• Responding to fires and medical emergencies

• Monitoring security systems and scanners

• Protecting properties and patrons from theft, vandalism, and violence

• Patrolling properties or guarding gate entrances

• Filing incident reports

And because an often unspoken duty of security guards is to interact with customers, answer basic questions, and direct crowds of people, SBG also requires its unarmed guards to be professionally groomed and possessing polished customer service skills.

This means that you need not worry about a security professional failing to reflect the spirit of your company. Our guards are a welcome addition to any location, and many have clerical and receptionist experience, perfect for manning a front desk, or just filling in if one of your staff members is out for the day.
